    where people like AOC are a sheepdog, guys like this are literally wolves in sheeps clothing. This is the rhetoric of a reactionary signalling who is to be blamed to the public, to the donors and the party elite - they know why they lost, they’re fine with it - the money says fascism is the way forward, and the money gets what the money wants. Everyone at that level gets a payday so it doesn’t matter.

    Don’t take it as an absolute fool saying the wrong and busted thing, take it as a signal that yes, the drive to the right will continue unabated. Cheney endorsements will seem quaint in 2028.

      “Never believe the anti-termites are unaware of the absurdity of their wood preferences. Or something I don’t know I’m not a professional quote maker or anything.”

      –Jean Claud von Voltaire (I think)
